Now is this is the 3rd year in a row for waterpark additions?

actually.... im not entirely sure off the top of my head, but if i remember right we got the small pool in 2006, then Southern Star in 07, and now the wave pool for 08...

I thought they put that small pool in last year with Southern Star and those used slides in 2006, i could be wrong. Either way we need a new something, im sure if they could have figured out a way to move a wave pool they might have tried

[Coasterlvr_nc]

oops forgot about the slides >.< in 06 we got the purple slides taken out, for the same layout but newer orange and blue slides. we got the small kiddie slides that you have to be below... i think around 54 inches to ride, unless your a chaperone of course. and we got the tide pool to the very left when your entering the water park. 06 was also the year they took out frienzoid to make room for the tide pool. Then in 07 under CF we rebuilt the friendzoid as southern star right next to Top Guns helix. now in 08 were getting Boni Beach, our second wavepool.

Yeah, are they putting in another old ride with the wave pool. i like the new location of Southern Star

[Coasterlvr_nc]

not that I'm aware of unfortunately, i did hear a RUMOR.... somewhere.... that there was construction going on where the waveswinger was. but that could have easily been maze deconstruction from scarowinds also.

I wish they would bring back Wild Bull. As a kid that ride was one of my favorites along with Dodgems.
